About Us

But we're so much more than just recruiters.

Founded in 2003, we are a small but fast-paced and dynamic company, with offices in Manchester (HQ), London, San Francisco and New York. We work with seed-stage Startups all the way through to billion dollar Tech Unicorns in AdTech, MarTech, Fintech, Cybersecurity, IT Services, BI & Big Data, SaaS and PaaS.

We're not your traditional technology recruitment company. We don't like sending resumes and we don’t ask our candidates to write lengthy cover letters.

Our approach is unique, but it works. That is why 90% of our business is done with clients we have worked with before.

Since 2003, we have consistenly innovated to offer the most relevant, efficient and progressive recruitment services.

We want to place the people who make all the difference.

What makes us different is the values framework within which we operate:

REFLECT AND OWN IT

Sometimes stuff goes wrong, it’s a fact of business life. We take accountability, love feedback and rectify mistakes, fast.

KEEP STRIVING AND EXPERIMENT OFTEN

Like you, we stay agile and pivot constantly to ensure our services stay relevant and fresh. We partner with you throughout the search to overcome obstacles and strive for the right outcome.

CONTRIBUTE TO THE FJ FAMILY

When you deal with one of us you deal with all of us. Our open market model ensures that our entire network engages with your vacancy and when you work with the FJ Family, you become an extended part of it.

DELIVER THE QUADRUPLE WIN

We genuinely care about the people that we work with, and the people that work for us - which is why we always strive to achieve an outcome whereby all parties win.
